Or does he make nothing at all and the record companies get the $$$?

i don't think it's pay-per-song.. rather it's in forms of contract etc..

I'm sure he makes enough of millions to be that famous.

He's making more than most music artists because their was a small record company bidding war for his and his Murder Inc family (before he was in mainstream america), I'd wager to bet that he make more profit from his music than Eminem

Radio stations pay about 3-10 cents in royalties each time they play a certain song.

Radio play royalties usually go to the songwriter and to the record company - with only a small portion going to the performer. Essentially, the record co collect the money. First dibs (usually 50%) goes to the song writer. Then there are deductions for the record co's admin fees, then charges for promotion/production, overheads for collection of payment, copyright fees, etc. Usually a few cents are left for the performer.

In the UK, typical songwriter royalty payments for a 3min track are about £25 ($40) for a local radio station, up to about £250 ($400) for a track played on primetime national TV.

Speaking of Ja Rule, when is he going to get rid of that ridiculous mustache??

I'm listening to 50 cent's IN DA CLUB over and over and it's funny how he made fun of Dre, Eminem, and Ja Rule all in the same verse, but you wouldn't know it unless you actually listened to the words...

He doesn't mention Ja in that song. How does he make fun of Dre and Eminem?
